Used Kia Sportage 2016-2021 review road test review The Sportage range includes petrol and diesel engines with and without 48V mild-hybrid assistance, as well as full-hybrid and plug-in hybrid Nevertheless, it’s clear why Kia expects the hybrid model to be popular here. Its hybrid powertrain can run on pure electricity in and out of town returning 40 mpg as you do it - not bad for a mid-sized petrol SUV – while pushing hard on the accelerator summons impressive performance for spearing past slower traffic. Kia Sportage Hybrid LX. The base Sportage Hybrid LX has a starting MSRP of $27,490. It comes standard with cloth upholstery, remote keyless entry, an 8-inch touch screen, a 12.2-inch digital instrument cluster, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth, a six-speaker audio system and a USB-C port. Although the BMW was legal I never felt that it was really that suitable and barely got out of 5th gear on the motorway. I realise that this is an old post but just wondering whether you ever did get the towbar fitted and how the mild hybrid 7 speed performed. Many thanks . J[/QUOTE] Performance. At launch, there was just the top-spec 2.0-litre diesel engine available, with a healthy 182hp on tap and an even more interesting 400Nm of torque. It’s fair to say that the Sportage pulls well with that power available, but the stopwatch shows the headline 0-62mph dash takes a rather steady 9.2 seconds. Finally, there’s the plug-in hybrid Tucson that benefits from a 13.8kWh battery pack and 66.9kW electric motor that’s good for 31 miles of electric-only range. Four-wheel drive is standard A csomagtartó-méretek nagyon függenek a motorizáltságtól, de a legkisebb csomagtartójú, összkerekes, dízel, 48 voltos enyhe hibridé 520 literes; az alap, semennyire nem hibrid, T-GDI kézi váltós Sportage csomagtere már 590 liter. A 180 lóerős tesztautónál a csomagtartó 562 liter volt alapból, a másik véglet két üléssel XzUXuz.
